This unit needs to be cleaned and refurbished. We did enjoy the location and walked most everywhere we needed / wanted to go.
This is a great property. Very spacious and had all the amenities you need. My only complaint is that the mattress in the bedroom without the en suite bathroom was not very comfortable but other than that, it was great. Any questions or concerns I had, they got back to me very quickly. It was clean and we had lots of room to spread out since there was 4 of us.
The layout, size, and furnishing of this property make it a good inexpensive base for exploring Glasgow. You could compare it to midrange student accommodation. It’s situated a 15 - 20 minute walk in either direction from Finnieston (and the arena + exhibition centre) and Glasgow City Centre, which will be your main going out spots.
“Checking in” was awkward, as it involved crouching on a footpath and checking multiple lockboxes attached to a nearby railing.
The accommodation itself is in Lancefield Quay Apartments, not the riverfront apartments shown in one of the photos, so you don’t actually get direct/unobstructed views of the Clyde.
Somethings like hairdryers and irons are provided though one ended up being faulty (I believe they’re replacing it though).
